How does Google know my location even after I don’t have my gps on?

I haven’t had my gps turned ON for a couple of weeks atleast and still whenever I search for the weather, I get to know the weather of my exact location. None of my devices have their gps activated and yet theyre able to get my location. How is that?

For landline your IP adress will give away your ISP, which is usually accurate enough to know which city are you from.

Google also remembers your last location, so if you already googled weather with some location info on (Wifi connected to landline, GPS on or something) it will use last known data.
